Naw, Paulians aren’t nuts at all
Streetsweeper sends us a link to the Examiner (Not the Washington Examiner) which tells us about an Adam Kokesh podcast in which our buddy, Adam, reads an email from a fan. Rather than post yet another Adam Kokesh YouTube video, here’s how the reading went from the Examiner;
“There is a way the nomination can be given to Ron Paul,” the email read by Kokesh said.
“Romney needs to die,” the letter continued.
According to the allegedly anonymous 19-year-old author of the email, the idea is more about saving America and innocent lives than ensuring a Paul nomination.
“I don’t get a lot of emails like this,” Kokesh said, adding that he has been “privileged” to hear “various forms of this proposal put forth.”
He went on to say that he has never endorsed or suggested such action.
“But, I cannot deny that the thought hasn’t crossed my mind, as well as so many other libertarians and Ron Paul supporters of late,” he added.
“Is Romney’s life equal to 500,000 innocent Iranian civilians he wants to kill,” the email asked, calling Romney a “terrorist.”
The email’s author claimed to be planning a video highlighting the assassination of Romney “and the turn of events it could cause.”
“The true patriot,” the email added, “would execute the ones who put the Patriot Act into place.”
Yeah, except that Romney was never in Congress, so he had nothing to do with the Patriot Act.
Of course, then Kokesh launched into a history lesson for his listener (singular on purpose) about how World War II could have been prevented by assassinating Hitler, because, you know Romney would be like Hitler if he was president and annex Austria. Or something.
But, I guess the upshot of this is that Ron Paulians are perfectly rational Americans who never vocalize the incessant voices in their head. And they’re not crazy enough to broadcast their compatriots’ idiot emails on the podcast. Because, that would trigger a Secret Service investigation, wouldn’t it? I mean, Romney has a Secret Service detail, right?

Well, I think Mr Kokesh should get a visit from our friends in the Secret Service… Romney is under their protection at this point.
I cannot believe the insanity of some people. Will Ron Paul repudiate this?
Isn’t the policy to provide a candidate with Secret Service protection only after he/she/it becomes the party’s official presidential nominee? Romney is the presumed GOP nominee but not the official one right now.
If anyone in the GOP really wants to be paranoid, they should think about all the Paulians that are packing the elections of the GOP delegates to the convention. National Review had an article about it a few days ago. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Paulians packed the comments too. I also wouldn’t be surprised if they staged something at the convention, a la the infamous ‘Show the shekels’ chant at CPAC.
According to the United States Secret Service Website, protection is extended to “major presidential and vice presidential candidates, and their spouses within 120 days of the general election.”
Let’s see, Ted Nugent got rousted for making a generic comment. Here is a direct threat with ‘Coke-esh’ holding on to the information that could trace and confront the author of the threat. Hmmm…
Mike wilson sent an e-mail to Kokehead?
Kokesh or Koresh? 😀
“But, I cannot deny that the thought hasn’t crossed my mind, as well as so many other libertarians and Ron Paul supporters of late.”
See, he can say that a lot of libertarians and Ronulans have been dreaming about killing Romney. That’s because he means it in a good way.
If I said that, however, it would be a “smear.” I’d be “attacking” them, and I would certainly be “afraid to debate the issues.”
It’s nice to see that Kokesh knows not only that there will be a Romney-led war against Iran, but also what the body count will be. I wonder if he has an exact figure of how many will die under an Iran mushroom cloud.
Will Ron Paul repudiate this?
Right about the same time he repudiates his connections with his racist newsletters and ties to Stormfront, which in other words means no.
show me at what time of the video does kokesh say he endorses killing romney-i`ll post the time of the video where he sys that he does not endorse such a plan-then rational people, unlike many of you here, can judge for yourselves his intentions-golly gee whizz already…..
Funny Anon, but I’ve yet to see an instance where the words, “Kokesh” and “rational” can ever be seriously mentioned in the same sentence. Pretty much the same with the rest of you dipshit Ronulans.
Anon – you’re argument is analogous to a Neo Nazi reading Mein Kampf to the masses. He doesn’t necessarily agree with killing Jews, he’s just providing thought provoking material to the followers.
If the intent wasn’t to plant a seed, then why make the message public?
I’m wondering if the “anonymous emailer” is actually Adam Kokesh.
Anonymous,
No, he didn’t say that he was going to kill Mitt Romney. And Lilyea never said that he said that.
Kokesh just said that the idea runs through his mind quite a bit. And the minds of a lot of his comrades. Wouldn’t it be great to kill Romney? I mean, he might launch a war against Iran, so we’d be heroic for doing so.
I’m not saying I’m going to do it, I’m just saying…
This is the kind of stuff you Paulbots say that really drives me up the wall. Kokesh passes on the murderous intentions of a nineteen year old fellow Paulbot. Kokesh doesn’t say, “That’s outrageous!” No, he says that he’s had the same fantasy too, and so have plenty of Paulbots. Then a Paulbot (you) sees it on TAH and feels the need to defend his fellow Paulbots. He has to spin and minimize it however he can. The best he can come up with is to say “Kokesh never SAID that he wanted to kill Romney!”
So it’s all a big smear, part of the hold-a-good-man-down strategy that’s the “establishment” and the media, and Joooos are always employing against lovers of liberty and peace.
Let me ask you this, anonymous. All things being equal, would you defend the exact same quote if it were a conservative radio host saying the same thing about Ron Paul?
Anonymous, you’re living proof that to join the ronulians, who will fight Star Fleet Command, you must have a paulbotomy. That way your dear leader paulsan is sure you will believe all his propaganda and bull sh1t.
[…] left for Rand to be president in the next election. Of course, there’s always the option that Adam Kokesh put forth the other day. Yeah, I don’t see any problem with that Ron Paul crowd running the […]
